Borderlands 2

I started laughing when I got a handgun with a giant *** beta mag coming out the side of it.

then I shot a couple people in the face with it.

and laughed some more.

I'm balling hard on some borderlands right now. But I got a headache (probably from too much Awesome) but in sitting here playing and chuckling at the dialogue. It'd be a lot easier of I had a squad right now.

-Even if you're "full" on ammo, you'll still pick up the ammo. I think it gives you money instead. Regardless, this is highly frustrating when playing with other people as valuable ammo gets wasted at the wrong times.

-Phase lock is WAYYY overpowered. You can phase people across the map. It's nuts.

-LOTS of bugs so far. When you get to the mission where you have to use an e-tech gun to kill bandits, make sure you actually use the gun on the ones that wave-spawn in on you. Otherwise you'll have to run around the map and kill level 13 bandits. Which sucks. Immensely.

-PLAY THE MOTHER ****ING SLOT MACHINES

-I don't know if it's different on the Xbox (or why) but I definitely can't pick up ammo when I'm full.

-Phase lock is awesome.I decided to go Siren, and I'm loving it. I'm going full Cataclysm and the upgrade that causes a fire explosion when you phase is cool. Especially since I found a class mod that amplifies the damage and chance to catch fire.

-Had the same problem with that mission, mainly because I couldn't find enough ammo.

So far I've found the game to be pretty easy. It might be because I've been using this bolt thrower pistol I got for doing the above mission that does 64x2 fire damage. I got it around lvl 8 and used constantly except when I ran into robot enemies. It absolutely destroys people. Even with most Badasses, I can phase lock them, empty a mag into them and they are dead before they hit the ground, or close enough that it's no thing.

Anyway, I'm coming off 9 hours straight at lvl 13. Funny thing is, I wasn't that big of a fan of the first Borderlands. I'm glad I decided to pre-order it yesterday on a whim. I haven't been this engrossed in a game since Skyrim first came out.

Read the paragraph above for the answer to the first part, and as far as what platform, I can't speak to the console versions, but the PC version is beautiful and I love the ability to cap frames without having to turn on Vsync. The PhysX fluid stuff on high looks a little weird though.

I'm on PC and was not able to with zero. Might be a character thing or something you picked up as a perk.

I'm playing as Zero and it definitely does it for me.

Creepingdeath12, lets play brah.

Also, how can one access the creature dome?

My GT is in my sig. Hit me up homie.

No idea on the creature dome. It's supposed to be later in the game. But I'm a solid 14 hours in right now and have yet to see it.

I'm a level 17 right now. And just a fair warning...those "buzzard" helicopters are busted as ****. SO god damn annoying in how glitchy they are. It makes them impossible to hit, and they're so strong. Plus they suicide dive at you. I'm raging so hard. I RAPE everything else. Shocking Nomadics are *******s too.

I'm glad I made myself broke this week to get it, instead of waiting. I was having tons of fun last night after work with it, trying the commando out. I think I will probably play as the siren again, though, for the most part.
